Contrary to popular opinion, memory loss is not a normal part of aging. It can be frightening for everyone involved. The leading cause of memory problems in older adults is dementia and common symptoms include:
- Increasing forgetfulness
- Inability to concentrate
- Putting things where they don't belong
- Change in sleep patterns
- Difficulty with daily tasks or more complicated problem solving
- Forgetting dates or how to get to familiar destinations
- Changes in mood or behavior
- Forgetting common words or using the wrong words
- Loss of interest in people, things, or activities
- Doing things that don't seem to make sense
